| Cold Air Advection and Air Mass Modification: This oblique view looks northward from South Florida to the southern Appalachians. Most of the southeastern US is in a crisp, clear air mass in the wake of a cold front that has pushed well off the mainland. Note the streets of low clouds forming as the cold air moves over the Gulf Stream and begins to acquire moisture and heat from the sea surface. Only a few jet stream and low-level clouds remain over South Florida and the Gulf Stream. |
